The Frankencast202. Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008) dir. Darren Lynn BousmanThis episode comes in a little glass vial! (A little glass vial?) Wanna get in on this modern cult film before it fully cements its cult classic status? Now's your chance! Join us as Pauly from Goodfellas faces off against Giles from Buffy in a battle to the death over a (maybe?) terminally ill teen girl. There's gross face masks, there's Paris Hilton/Bill Moseley sibling rivalry (and sibling other things), there's a grave robbing Greek chorus, there's Chekhov's wrought-iron fence, there's machine-gun-toting Business Babes, there's DJ Meemaw on the ones and twos. This movie has everything. ...2025-08-141h 14

The Frankencast200! Frankenstein: National Theatre Live (2011) dir. Danny BoyleWe did it, fiends! 200 episodes! They said it couldn't be done, and here we are. This week, to celebrate the special occasion, we're finally watching two movies we've been wanting to get to since day one. We're discussing the alternating dual-role performances by Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller in the British National Theatre's production of Frankenstein. So join us as we compare the two versions. See if we agree or disagree on the best version! Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss future installments.

The Frankencast199. The Moreaucast with Rodney AscherOkay, so we weren't quite done with Dr. Moreau. This week we're joined by Very Special Guest Rodney Ascher, director of Room 237, The Nightmare, A Glitch in the Matrix, and Ghost Boy (which is currently doing the festival circuit). Rodney has been really digging into the Moreau films lately, so our mutual friend Tim Kirk linked us up. This conversation was an absolute blast, so we're really excited to share it with you all!Find more from Rodney at https://www.rodneyascher.com/ and order his recently announced short film mixtape at https://vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/dekanalog...2025-07-241h 13

The Frankencast198. The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) dir. John Frankenheimer (w/ Richard Stanley)We've reached the final Moreau film (for now, but just wait for our brilliant sequel PLANET OF DR. MOREAU), and we gotta say that this much maligned 1996 film with the extremely well-documented disastrous production actually kind of rules? So, like, see it if you haven't. It's absolutely bonkers, but in the best kind of way. Join us as we discuss the Brando vs. Kilmer war of craziness, the world's smallest man, and the world's most unwelcome extra.

The Frankencast196. Island of Lost Souls (1932) dir. Erle C. KentonWe've got to go back to the island, fiends! We had so much fun at the Blood Island (of Dr. Moreau) that we're returning for another visit. This week, it's the Island of Lost Souls. And even though it doesn't mention Moreau in the title, this one is much more explicit in its adaptation than Terror is a man. Join us as Charles Laughton chews the scenery as Moreau, and we meet an exceedingly furry Bela Lugosi reciting the law, and the Panther Woman, an addition to the story who we'll be seeing again.Please rate, review...2025-07-0343 min

The Frankencast193. The Cutter's Club (2025) dir. Charles BandThis week's film is a surprise release from Full Moon Features that we could not resist talking about. It's a "lost" film starring Tony Todd that Charles Band has "graciously" dug up and finished in the wake of the actor's recent passing. Join us as we meet Jack and Jill, who metaphorically fetch (perform horrific surgery on) a pail of water (two cats). We'll also meet Slinky, the two-hearted cat, the dreaded Weas-odile, and Two-Head the guy with two heads (surprise!)Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

Join us for the next installment of the Blood Island series, and the first one to actually have some continuity from the previous film. So, we're catching up with doctor frenemies Dr. Foster and Dr. Lorca and the plucky reporter who comes between them, not to mention the decapitated and yet still living beast who got a serious special effects budget glow-up since the last movie.

The Frankencast183. April Fool's Fright (2020) dir. Tim ShermanWe enjoy a good April Fool's Day prank as much as the next podcast, but this year, we've decided to skip the pranks and just enjoy a little bit of family-friendly animated comedy from the people who brought us Frankenstein Ruins Halloween. Join us to find out if Frankenstein also ruins April Fools Day. Also, we'll be discussing bats in bell-fries, just what exactly is the name of that zombie guy, and what happens when you try to start trouble with Santa Claus...Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

The Frankencast181. The Fly II (1989) dir. Chris WalasIt's time for 2 Fly 2 Furious, baby! Join us as we get a classic '80s sequel that loses basically the entire original cast for what would seem like a lazy cash-grab, but is in fact a really good film that handles generational trauma in an '80s way to compare to the original '50s/60s series. Join us as we decide ACAB includes science facility security guards, make a body horror cactus, and get really emotional over a mutant dog puppet.Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

The Frankencast164. The Perfect Woman (1949) dir. Bernard KnowlesOkay, this might be barely a Frankenstein story. But hear us out. It's a light-hearted little comedy and it works as a really bizarre double feature with last week's film. So join us for wacky hijinks as a real girl pretends to be a robot, and a robot pretends to be a real girl. Join us as we struggle with voice commands, sneak food when the management isn't looking, and try desperately to make a watch that can yodel. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

The Frankencast162. V/H/S/FrankensteinHappy Halloween, fiends! We're kinda breaking the format again this week. In honor of the recent release of V/H/S/Beyond, we're discussing several Frankensteinian segments from a number of films in the V/H/S franchise.

The Frankencast157. Frankencast Double Feature!: Amityville Frankenstein/Las Vegas FrankensteinThings are getting chaotic over here at the Frankencast Labs! Join us as we watch two low-budget movies and have very different feelings about the two. First up, it's Amityville Frankentein, one more film in the increasingly broken series of completely unrelated "Amityville" films. This one is certainly not in anyway related to the Amityville Horror, nor is it really all that much of a Frankenstein film, but here we are, we watched it, and now we have to talk about it. We're talking time loops, toothpaste arguments, and FMV video games... And THEN, we move on to Las...2024-09-261h 13

The Frankencast152. Frankenstein: Legacy (2024) dir. Paul DudbridgeThis week, we're discussing another new release, but one you may not have heard of. We've got a decent example of a direct-to-streaming legacy sequel, this is decent but not great, and that seems to have mostly been overlooked. But it's definitely worth your time. Join us as we recover Victor Frankenstein's lost journal and then end up just having to deal with a bunch of rude jerks. It's not exactly fun, but it is interesting.

The Frankencast136. Gods and Monsters (1998) dir. Bill CondonHere at the Frankencast, we've spent a lot of time talking about the Mother of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, but we haven't really talked much about the Father of Frankenstein, James Whale. It's high-time we remedied that, so here we are talking about the Academy Award winning fictional retelling of the last days of Whale's life. Join us as we talk about some heavy topics and pay tribute to the man who is at least partially responsible for the nearly endless supply of Frankenstein films that allows us to do this show. Please rate, review, and tell your...2024-05-021h 37

The Frankencast121. What's Frankenstein?We're awfully busy at the Frankencast Lab, so enjoy this, our very first Patreon episode! If you're doing a podcast where you just talk about Frankenstein and Frankenstein-adjacent movies all the time, it's important to figure out what exactly counts as a Frankenstein movie.

We go to some weird places and talk ourselves into adding some movies to our list that we're less than excited about. We also...2024-01-1830 min

The Munsters has been pretty hit or miss lately, and this week it's a little bit of both. We're discussing the abysmal "Lily Munster - Girl Model" and the much better (but still not great) "Munster the Magnificent". Herman is kind of an idiot in both episodes, but much more charmingly so in the second of the two. There's also several s...2023-10-0906 min

This week it's Betsy Phillips' zombie-farmhand mystery/romance with an evil Doctor who is just Frankensteinian enough to get our attention. It's a beautiful story that came to us as a recommendation from previous Frankencast discussion subject...2023-08-2121 min

The FrankencastBONUS Pt. 2: Frankencast After Dark: "A Country of Eternal Light" - Jennifer Donohue (from Patreon)We're really excited about Jennifer Donohue's "A Country of Eternal Light" so we may have gone a little overboard. One ongoing segment we have over at patreon.com/thefrankencast is Frankencast After Dark, where Anthony is joined by The Bride to dig deeper into topics discussed briefly in main feed episodes. The Bride read Jennifer's story and had some feelings that she wanted to share. This is an intensely emotional conversation, but we wanted to make it available to all of our listeners. We're talking about grief and love in the time of protest. A lot still fee...2023-04-1835 min
